I read the code on my 95 SHO, and it came up with codes 212 & 214. The car is hard to start when warm & backfires. The code for 212 is "IDM circuit failure/SPOUT circuit grounded. The code for 214 is CID circuit failure. What does this mean. I think it my be a DIS module or crankshaft sensor. Please help!

The code means you found your problem. :)

The Camshaft position sensor appears to have failed. It supplies the computer with spark timing info when starting the car and when it goes bad, your car will backfire on startup, be hard to start, and give you those codes.

I got them at www.midwestsho.com/maintenance.html

Otherwise, your local Auto parts store should have it.
